Oops, You Did It Again

Smash Up has turned the asylum over to the inmates yet again! After the success of It’s Your Fault, we decided to let the fans choose the factions that would make up the latest set of Smash Up, and they went for some powerful choices! A huge field was whittled down to the top four, and here they are: Cowboys call out opposing minions for shootouts, Samurai face their noble end in battle to bring glory to their player, Ancient Egyptians bury secrets deep in the sands, while the Vikings… well they just take other people’s stuff!

- Oops, You Did It Again box description

Oops, You Did It Again is the 15th Smash Up set. It contains 4 new factions, 8 new bases, a rulebook, and VP tokens.

Combined with all previous sets, there are 64 factions and 128 bases, which make 2016 possible pairs of factions.

This is the second set in which all the factions were submitted by fans and then a popularity vote was used to select the factions of this set. AEG previously did it for the It’s Your Fault! set.

Extra cards can now always be played immediately instead of being banked for later.

This set also introduced the following clarifications:

Clarified that the owner of a faction is the player who chose it during setup.

Clarified that abilities that expire at the start of a turn expire before any start-of-turn abilities are resolved.

Clarified that if your hand is empty, you don't get automatic draws outside the Draw 2 Cards phase.

Clarified that if your hand is bigger than 10 outside your Draw 2 Cards phase, you don't discard down to 10.

Clarified that abilities that expire at the end of a turn expire after any end-of-turn abilities are resolved.

Clarified that if there's a tie for use of a base's ability, each of those players get to use is, starting with the Current player and going clockwise, but if using the base's ability several times "doesn't make sense", then only one player gets to use (the first from the Current player and going clockwise).

Clarified that going to the discard pile after scoring isn't the same as being destroyed.

Clarified that if you can play a specific card as an extra card, it cannot be banked and so must be played immediately or not at all.

Clarified that cards in the box are not considered as being in play.

Clarified that On your turn abilities are only useable once on your turn.

Clarified that when you just reveal a card from your hand or deck and it's put back where it was, it doesn't go to its owner's hand or deck.

The name of the set is a reference to the fact that this is the second contest held by AEG during which fans could submit faction ideas, and then vote for their favorite submissions. The first time was our fault. This time, we did it again! In the end, Cowboys, Egypt (rather than Ancient Egyptians), Samurai and Vikings won.
